Default Hvac Actuator Problem Help!!!

I need help!!! I have the drivers side actuator problem on my 98. I have the two codes B0361 and B0441. I have replaced the head unit, charged the freon in the system, tried pulling #27 fuse, and I just replaced the drivers side actuator last night and I still have a problem. After installing the new actuator the codes have changed a little. With the A/C off the only code that comes up is B03661 H C but when I turn the A/C on I get codes B0361 H and B0441 H C. Then I hit reset and I get B0361 H and B0441 H and I still get warm air on the drivers side and cold on the passengers. Can anyone tell me what else could be the problem??? Can I possibly have gotten a bad actuator? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you tried pulling fuse #27 AFTER you installed the actuator? Also, you need to leave the fuse out for at least 60 seconds before you put it back. The HVAC controller may need to recalibrate with the NEW actuator. Then, clear the codes and see what happens.
B0361 is a short to ground code, B0441 is an out of range code. You may need to check for a pinched, or chafed wire, or corroded connector which can also give you the B0361 code.
